尽管开源软件开发与礼品经济相比，通常会比其他形式的软件生产更加公平，更民主的软件生产模型，但在每天练习中的开放性笔记也更为主导。加剧妇女的排除是一种复杂的结构，不仅仅是知识产权安排。知识和代码在开源开发人员中可以交换的情况，而开源开发人员认为技术与社会是正交的，开放性的笔记是通过将人与彼此分开并减轻可能创造的义务来将社会与技术联系起来其他形式的礼物交流过程。
While open source software development promises a fairer, more democratic model of software production often compared to a gift economy, it also is far more male dominated than other forms of software production. The specific ways F/LOSS instantiates notions of openness in everyday practice exacerbates the exclusion of women. ‘Openness’ is a complex construct that affects more than intellectual property arrangements. It weaves together ideas about authorship, agency, and the circumstances under which knowledge and code can and cannot be exchanged. While open source developers believe technology is orthogonal to the social, notions of openness tie the social to the technical by separating persons from one another and relieving them of obligations that might be created in the course of other forms of gift exchange. In doing so, men monopolize code authorship and simultaneously de-legitimize the kinds of social ties necessary to build mechanisms for women’s inclusion.
